I welcome the advice from those with automotive knowledge. I am the original owner of a 1994 Chevy Z-71 4x4 with over 350,000 miles. I take good care of the truck and want to keep it for sentimental reasons. The gas mileage is horrible now, like 10mpg and the engine idles and runs a little rough. The engine goes through about a quart of oil a week, yet it does not smoke.
The rest of the truck is in good shape and is great for hauling firewood in a trailer.
Should I get a decent used 5.7L engine or have something done to the original engine? I'm looking for "the best bang for the buck". I hoping for the truck to last another 3-4 years or so. Thanks for any help or advice out there.
